Isle Of Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEDFFDid pangs of grief for lenient time too keen | A |
Grief that devouring waves had caused or guilt | B |
Which they had witnessed sway the man who built | B |
This Homestead placed where nothing could be seen | A |
Nought heard of ocean troubled or serene | A |
A tired Ship soldier on paternal land | C |
That o'er the channel holds august command | C |
The dwelling raised a veteran Marine | A |
He in disgust turned from the neighbouring sea | D |
To shun the memory of a listless life | E |
That hung between two callings May no strife | E |
More hurtful here beset him doomed though free | D |
Self doomed to worse inaction till his eye | F |
Shrink from the daily sight of earth and sky | F |
